I have had countless retail interviews, no idea why none of them have ever hired me, BUT, nearly half of the ones I seen has had someone with a bach degree in Business management applying right next to me or someone claiming they had 10 years experience in group interviews. Now quite a lot of retail businesses are requiring the same.
How long until the ultimate in “entry level jobs” ( Fast food, McDonald's, Taco Bell etc) now requires you to have years experience or a college degree of some kind before they will consider hiring you if you are not some 16 year old little boy or girl?
